    They are the best, this is simply the nicest bike I have ever been pillion on, if that counts for anything, tis his pride and joy! Reckon there is a bit of road time still to be served before it get changed.

    No. NO! You have all this new stuff - esp. the Ohlins - and rather than watching the money going down the gurgler you should enjoy the bike!!

    The Ohlins gear wasn't maintenance but rather upgrades & you should enjoy them (I certainly hope you do they cost enough) and when you see another bike you MUST have swap them over to the new bike but in the mean time, enjoy what you have
    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded
